Lema was headed east on Gallagher Drive in a black 2014 Nissan Altima, when he apparently failed to stop for a stop sign, according to police reports. Lema’s car collided with a 2004 black Ford Focus, driven by Erwinski who was headed south on Delsea Drive.

The wreckage of the vehicles, one overturned, ended up on the front yard of the former Vineland Taxidermy property in the 3400 block of North Delsea Drive.

Just before the collision, police were reportedly responding to the area for an employee of a Vineland Industrial Park business “acting bizarre” in the company parking lot, according to police reports, who identified the man as Lema.

Lema was charged by Vineland Police with driving under the influence after blood samples tested positive for cocaine and opiates, according to police reports. He was also charged with drug offenses and issued traffic summonses.
